I made it home with no travel drama yesterday, thank goodness! And I was able to sleep some on both legs of my flight and was asleep before 1 Eastern last night and am up reasonably early today. Early enough for my schedule, anyway.
Buffy: He ran away, right? Giles: Sort of, more. turned and swept out majestically, I suppose. Said I didn't concern him. Buffy: So a mythic triumph over a completely indifferent foe? Giles: Well, I'm not dead or unconscious, so I say bravo for me.

Natter 78: I might need to watch some Buffy for inspiration
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

My mom and stepdad are in Scotland for 2 weeks (once again, my 78-year-old mom is 100% my retirement role model), and when they arrived, she texted to let me know they got there and said "[Stepdad] snored in my ear the whole way to Heathrow and I couldn't sleep. I don't want to start vacation by killing him but I might have to."

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I spent so much of my weekend in front of the tv.
Bridgerton S3.1 all
Dead Boy Detective all
Mare of Easttown 3 eps in
My brain wants stories, not work. Hoping to listen to audiobook over lunch to appease brain.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
The very tall gangly young man in the seat next to mine in the last leg was asleep the whole flight and slumping way too far into my personal space. Zero stars, would not sit next to again.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Oh, man, sympathies on the red eye in particular and travel in general. I slept in my own bed last night and just had to drag myself as far as the living room to work and I still feel like this is all a bit of an imposition.

Our wings are not tired.
I had a wonderful visit with my uncle (hospice) and family yesterday and got to see a close friend in Oakland whose husband was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer last year. He’s doing pretty well all things considered. They got a new puppy and I almost stole her! Took a redeye where I slept beautifully for the first time in my life - thanks to the huge pillow and blanket I bought at the airport AND the weed gummy and melatonin. I was in Economy Plus and realized that when I’m in the front of the plane (biz or first) on my own dime, I’m so intent on taking advantage of every possible nicety that comes with the hefty price tag that I am reluctant to sleep! So I may always just bring a pillow and blanket and do economy plus for redeyes now. Seems backwards but I’ve never slept so well on a plane in my life
I miss all of you very much. I think we should get together again soon and not wait until another of us is gone.

I am home, and is there any better feeling than taking your shoes off after a long trip and sitting on your own couch like a pretzel? I propose there is not!

Yes, yes there is - it’s doing all of that but with Snarflebutts on your lap!

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Y'all are a fucking BALM TO THE SOUL and I miss you already.
All of this. With every single Buffista hug, I exhaled so deeply and just wanted to melt into my people. I've missed y'all incredibly.

Swouncing
Poking my head for just a minute in order to write that in my profile there's a link to a Google Drive folder, open for everybody to edit, in which all y'all can upload pictures from the weekend, so I can enjoy all your pictures from afar. Um, I mean, so that we can all share each other's pictures (well, I don't have any pictures from the weekend to share. The best I can offer is family pictures from PiBoy's bar-mitzva a couple of months ago, if anybody is interested. Sorry).
